Ted Baker to... Reupholster the HTC Touch?

"Trendy Ted Baker has announced that it's been cutting the cloth on some new designs for Samsung and HTC with two handsets sashaying into Carphone Warehouse for Christmas...Tickling our smartphone sense, however, is the Ted Baker Tyrian, which hopes to do for the HTC Touch what Prada did for the LG KE850 – except this time in purple. It'll be well heeled, too, with the same TouchFLO controls, Wi-Fi and Windows Mobile 6.0 found on its iPhone-wannabe standard incarnation."
I'm all for an increased consumer focus for PDA phones, and also for eschewing the standard drab corporate colors -- but I'm not convinced that merely repackaging an existing device is the way to do it. That said, I'll hold judgment on this until I can spot one in person.
